Schedule TO -- Offer to Purchase

Purpose and Reasons for the Offer, page 34

3.       We note your statements under the caption "Going Private Transaction"
that the current
         transaction may be subject to Rule 13e-3 and that Parent may be deemed
an affiliate of
         Sequans. Given your determination to file Schedule 13E-3, it is
inappropriate to disclaim
         your obligation to comply with Rule 13e-3 or the affiliate
relationship with Sequans.
         Please revise here and in section 7 of this offer document (page 54).
4.       We note the managing director agreement Parent entered into with Dr.
Karam. Please
         provide us your legal analysis of such agreement under the provisions
of Rule 14d-
         10(a)(2) and (d).

guaranteed delivery procedures
         will not be included in determining whether the Minimum Condition has

         delivered.
